OUTREACH COMMITTEE NEWS

At the M.O.C. Meeting on September 7th, we decided to meet at 5:30 PM on Thursday, September 25, 2014, and on the 4th Thursday of each month, thereafter. At the meeting on September 25th, we plan to discuss needs in our community and how St. Margaret’s can address them, taking into account the resources we have of time, talent, and treasure. It would be very helpful if people attending would come prepared to discuss the needs they see, suggest resources available to address them, and also to think about what we can submit to the Vestry as a proposed budget for the Mission Outreach Committee.

Many thanks to The Game Loft for their excellent report September 14th during the Coffee Hour on the Circles of Care Program. Having the student, his mother, and Ray Estabrook of the Game Loft telling about the needs they identified, and how they went about using the Trauger Grant funds to bring this about was a revelation for many who have not been involved with this very well-run program.
